Hi,

Those are 18" straight from a 2003 Nissan Armada!

We have lowered in the back 3", nothing to the front.

They fit and turn with no problem, no rubbing. Very, very close in the rear and fron in terms of clearance, maybe 1/2"

The tires are 265/18  35, pretty low profile. Rides a little harsh, you could go with 40s.

Thanks for asking.
